Please allow me to introduce myself, I'm a man of poverty and tasteless kitsch

Been around for 50 years, stole nothing, unlike the Wall Street Leech.
I was there when C-Street Jesus made "his" debut as the 1%'s god.
Made damn sure my mind was pure, I rejected being a pea in the pod.
Pleased to be here! Luke is my first name.

Okay, enough with the Stones: My username is ourfuneral because I'm not at all sure this country can survive with a significant percentage of congressional Republicans bound and determined to destroy the Republic. Personally, I'd be happy to see Texas secede, and take the rest of the Old Confederacy with it! Let 'em have their white, Christian theocracy, while the rest of us deal with non-Biblical matters like the abysmal state of our education system, the continuing stupidity afflicting far too many of our fellow citizens, and the denial of everything from global warming, to continuing racism, to our lagging behind Bulgaria in science and meth.

Oops! Sorry! That should have read "math." Hey, when it comes to meth, baby, we're Number One!

But just out of curiosity, how many posts did you have to make before you could start a thread to introduce yourself?
